Chapter 127 The center of gravity of the white robe
"You two, go and watch outside His Majesty's palace. Don't get close. If there is any trouble, come back and report it." Yang Lihua's voice was cold, "Don't make a fuss."
After sending out seven or eight people from half the palace, Yang Lihua just waved her hand: "I want to take a bath and change clothes, you go ahead."
"As commanded."
After most of the people in the palace had left, Yang Lihua breathed a sigh of relief and sat down directly on the couch.
After all, she is just a little girl who is less than 20 years old. Others at this age should be enjoying the affection and love with her husband, but Yang Lihua has experienced several life and death and ups and downs in life, even if it is
These experiences that were so unforgettable that they could wake people up in the middle of the night allowed her to barely keep calm in front of so many people. But after everyone left, Yang Lihua still couldn't hold back the breath she had been holding on to.
.
After all, this is not the responsibility and pressure that should be shouldered at this age.
I just don’t know when I will be freed, and when I will find the warmth and safe arms that truly belong to me?
At least from now on, such a day is getting further and further away from her. The struggle between her husband and her father has become more and more intense, and a sword fight is about to happen before her eyes. But compared to this conflict that is so close at hand, it is far away.
Outside Guanzhong, I wonder what kind of dark clouds are gradually moving forward?
Yu Wenxian, Li Xingchen and Yang Lihua chewed these two names lightly.
She was not familiar with these two people at all. She had even seen the former, and she had only heard of the latter. And it was these people who were stirring up the world with all their strength. Anyone who was in this whirlpool
People can only follow and move forward involuntarily.
This feeling is really not good.
Jiankang Prefecture, Xuanhua Town (now Liuhe, Nanjing).
The breath of the New Year has not yet dissipated from the streets, and the whole town is already busy. Originally, this was just an inconspicuous town under the jurisdiction of Jiankang Prefecture in Jiangbei. It was even named because of the long-term desolation of Huainan.
As for the town, it was almost deserted.
As the imperial court decided to open up Huainan and the north and south began to open markets and trade along the Huai River, merchants and caravans from Jiankang Prefecture and further away from Jiangnan, Lingnan and other places continued to go north. In addition to choosing to go from Jingkou and Caishiji, etc.
In addition to the traditional piers that cross the river, more and more people are starting to go directly north to Xuanhua Town from piers outside Jiankang Prefecture such as Taoyedu, Yanziji, etc., and then take the road from here to Huaidong and Huaixi. Exactly
Because it is located at the junction of east and west, this small town suddenly became prosperous.
The merchants coming and going make the whole Xuanhua Town lively, and the more crowded the place, the more news circulates. Therefore, no one knows that with the prosperity of Xuanhua Town, it represents the most secret of the Han Dynasty.
The white robe of power also gradually moved large and small departments from Jiangnan to here.
Perhaps even those merchants who come and go often are not aware that there is another mystery in this courtyard next to the inconspicuous government office in Xuanhua Town, which is leaning on a hill.
If anyone is the most well-informed person in the Han Dynasty, it must be the white-robed Chen Yu. Therefore, when he learned that several basic policies of the imperial court would focus on Huainan, Chen Yu decisively began to arrange the policies in Jiangbei.
Baipao's final destination, and even plans to directly transfer all of Baipao's main personnel here.
In fact, Chen Yu had his own considerations and worries in doing this. He knew the nature of the white robe very well. It was His Majesty's top-secret killer move and a weapon that the big man could not see the light of. Most people in the officialdom were more or less natural.
Everyone is aware of the existence of the white robe and can guess its power.
But it is precisely because of this that they covet this kind of power, and want to achieve some of their own intentions that may need to be concealed or even treasonous by obtaining and possessing this kind of power. And Chen Yu can guarantee that he will not be involved and become
Helping others in their struggle for power or corruption, but there is no guarantee that everyone under them will have such firm confidence.
Let’s not talk about the original creation of White Robe. In fact, there are still many flaws in many places. Even if people are loyal and talented during the selection, there is no guarantee that they will not change without change in the long-term flow of time.
Human hearts are the most complex and easily changeable, especially for an institution like Baipao that may threaten the life or death of a person or even a dynasty at any time. Once someone changes their mind without knowing it, it will be very dangerous. Therefore, Chen Yu simply said
Drag the white robe out of the huge whirlpool of Jiankang Mansion.
The original purpose of setting up the White Pao was to mainly deal with enemies in the north, and to play a supervisory role over our own people. To deal with Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian, this was also the original intention of Li Xingchen to set up the White Pao. This time, the White Pao is certainly dealing with the problems of the aristocratic family.
He did a good job, but it also aroused Li Xingchen's vigilance and dissatisfaction. After all, this should be the responsibility of the Yushitai, and Baipao felt like he was overstepping.
Li Xingchen will not forget that in history, the Jinyiwei, Dongchang, Xichang, etc. of the Ming Dynasty checked and balanced each other and criticized each other, which greatly affected the attention of the court. Although he knew that sometimes this was an inevitable check and balance of power.
and supervision methods, but Li Xingchen must delay this evolution process as much as possible, otherwise if the white robe is allowed to grow disorderly like weeds, it will only backfire on the big man in the end.
It was naturally impossible for Chen Yu to ignore Li Xingchen's dissatisfaction, so Baipao's relocation was naturally a matter of course. This also meant that Baipao would devote more fully to its actions against the north and no longer actively participate in the internal actions of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, Li Xingchen also knew that Yushitai had exposed a big problem in dealing with the family this time. Yushitai's hindsight made Li Xingchen very passive for a time. However, the Yushitai and the family were too deeply involved, so
Whether he concealed it actively or passively, it was reasonable. This is why Li Xingchen knew that using the white robe was likely to encourage some bad arrogance, but he had to use it.
However, Baipao's vigorous and resolute actions this time obviously shocked the Yushitai headed by Pei Ji. The Yushitai no longer procrastinated in handling follow-up issues, and neatly cooperated with the Ministry of Punishments to complete inspections, distribution, etc.
At the same time, he also monitored and reported many accomplices, trying to eradicate the root cause. It was precisely because Yushitai suddenly started to work hard that Chen Yu was more assured to shift the focus of Baipao's work.
At this time, the hills behind this small courtyard have been completely hollowed out. People are coming and going in the huge secret room, and news from all over the north is flowing continuously.
